Reposted by Justin LinesShane Liddelow @liddelowsa.bsky.social · 10/11/2023WOW! 372 "astrocyte" presentations this year at #SfN2023 @SfNTweets Not enough talks - let's work on this for 2024. Full roundup below. I am SURE I have missed some, so please reply with more! Daily session roundups to come for each session. See you all soon. #SocietyForGlia 192

Led by @susieyufeng.bsky.social, we found that chronic epilepsy in mice drives distinct synchronization deficits in hippocampus and MEC, with early changes in HPC and late-onset changes in MEC that align with progressive memory impairment. www.cell.com/cell-reports... 15321

Neither did we! 🧠 In a new preprint from the Cai Lab, learn how we discovered the AHN’s central role in regulating stress vulnerability. Read the paper here: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

In work led by Joe Zaki, we find that rest periods after learning not only stabilize new memories BUT ALSO integrate new memories with older ones from days past!
